Hummingbird Feeder, Simi Valley
Anna's, Allen's and Costa's hummingbirds on a live webcam at a backyard feeder in Simi Valley, California.
About this view
A backyard in Simi Valley, in the hills of Ventura County, where the feeder has been kept by someone who has fed hummingbirds in Southern California for more than 30 years. On this live cam the regulars are Allen's, Anna's and Costa's hummingbirds, three species that breed in this corner of the United States.
Nothing here holds still for long. Birds hover at the feeder with their wings a blur, drink in bursts of a few seconds, and chase each other off the perches; a male Anna's catching the sun turns his throat from dull grey to vivid rose in an instant. Black-chinned hummingbirds join the regulars in summer, and a Rufous or a Calliope may pass through on migration in late winter.
Simi Valley keeps Pacific Time, UTC−8, UTC−7 in summer. Feeders are busiest in the first hours of daylight and again before dusk, when the birds fuel up for the night, which puts the morning rush in a European afternoon. Anna's hummingbirds stay in Southern California through the winter, so the feeder has visitors in every season.
